Romney stands for our Constitution

Our divinely inspired Constitution and Bill of Rights are being hit from all sides. Some even question the documents' lasting significance.

People cry, "revolution," "change" and "forget our leadership."

I had a brief conversation with someone who proclaimed all of these things, and I became angry. For the sake of anonymity, I'll call him "Bob."

Does the cheap seat look pretty good to you from where you are, Bob? It doesn't to me.

Democracy isn't easy. You have to want it badly. You have to want it enough to put up with all of the rakish comments people such as you make because the Bill of Rights tells me you can say them.

Lucky for us, there are a lot more people like me than there are of you.

Democracy has done nothing to harm you, Bob. It even put up with all of the so-called "freedom lovers" who called our veterans baby killers and other vile remarks after they returned home from Vietnam.

Celebrate that. Acknowledge that. Then you can say we live in the "Land of the free and the home of the brave."

We already had our revolution. The documents we need to preserve our Constitution are in place.

If elected, Mitt Romney's "walk" through the presidency will be a special charge to protect and defend our Constitution.
